The 2024 World Nature Photography Awards have unveiled the winners, with a collection of breathtaking underwater images from around the globe. One standout photo captured gannets fighting for a fish in the Shetland Islands, earning the grand prize in the competition.
The annual awards showcase the beauty of nature and the diverse wildlife that inhabits it. This year’s entries included thousands of submissions from photographers across six continents, highlighting marine life such as whales, sea lions, and sea turtles in their natural habitats.
In addition to recognizing exceptional photography, the World Nature Photography Awards team is dedicated to environmental conservation. For every photo submission received and every winning photo sold on their online store, a tree is planted to help preserve these vital habitats.
Among the top underwater images in this year’s competition are stunning portraits of sea creatures in their element. These photos offer a glimpse into the incredible diversity of marine life found within these waters.
The winning photos not only showcase exceptional photography but also bring attention to the importance of protecting our oceans and preserving these vital habitats for future generations.
